I've been told I'm all the drama and none of the fun.

Often thwarted by autocorrect thinking it knows best and my lack of proofreading.

Catchphrase: I don’t know what that is.

My daughter is beautiful.
Malin laying down my legs that are under a grey fleece blanket. She is looking at me over her shoulder. Her grey tail is sweeping across her white outstretched back leg. Her little pink beans can be seen by my belly.

I feel like this is a bad sign but I can’t remember.
Wooly worm with normal black, long dark orange, really short black coloring.

This is the Old Capital, Matt Leinart, NOT the Pentacrest. The Pentacrest consists of five buildings, of which Old Cap is one. Fucking moron.

(MacLean, Schaefer, Macbride and (quickly googles because I can’t ever remember the fifth fucker) Jessup (!, you old so and so))
Looking down Iowa Avenue at the Old Capital with Big Noon setup in front.

This song will never not remind of freshman year at The Union dancing up against the wall with “vest guy” as my friends and I called him.

Bag is packed, I guess.
Short-haired mackerel tabby cat laying in a black Swiss Army backpack that is being packed for a weekend in Iowa City. Beside him is a sweatshirt that I’m wearing to the men’s basketball game tonight that says “GAME DAY.”

Rescued this set of rain gear probably -10 years ago when we cleaned out the old house in case I needed them for an Iowa game. Pretty sure that’s why my parents bought it back in the 90s. Never out of the package but jacket has a hole and I might need suspenders on the too long pants. IT IS TIME
Me looking like the Gorton’s fisherman in a two-piece yellow (perfect for Iowa) rain suit that I’m certain is at least 30 years old. The jacket “fits” but the pants are too long and there is no elastic in the waist to keep them up. I suppose I can tuck them into my actual pants maybe.

I am taking this game forecast personally.

Some of y’all, like @magnolia2010.bsky.social, went through the adventure of picking out tile for my mud/laundry room floor back in the early days of Bluesky. Well, it finally has been installed and looks amazing.
Malin standing on newly installed tile. Square porcelain tile features a large geometric star in the middle of the tile and smaller star made up by the intersection of four tiles in faded blue tones.

This is one of the greatest gifts I’ve ever been given. @joshberka.bsky.social dropped the beads and @amaskeberka.bsky.social told me about it and now I get the pleasure of sorting them. My brain is so happy.
All mixed up beads in a container that should keep them separated. Beginning stages of sorting. Pyrex bowl with beads next to the sorting container with some beads sorted and little lids containing close in color beads that need to be looked at more closely on top.

I feel like you need to see these two photos as well because they capture her essence.
Malin always knows where her light is. She’s sitting on a scratcher in the orange morning sun. Malin doing her best sexy George Costanza. She is sitting on the dining room table covered in a cream and silver buffalo check table cover. She has her left arm outstretched over a blue upholstered chair and looking over her shoulder. One of the coolest lamps ever is behind her to the left.

These are from 2021, when she was 2 yo. The one under the tree was my Christmas card that year.
Malin standing in the top of a saguaro cactus scratching post. It was their Christmas present that year. Malin under the Christmas tree sitting on a white tree smirk with colorful pomp poms. Rupert can be seen in the background behind a teddy bear sitting on a green tree skit with sequins.

I cannot get enough when Malin sits like this. Her little paws are so proper.
Grey and white long haired cat sitting on her bottom looking out the window with her little white paws up on the white window sill.

Check out the sign I ended up with! I took it right in front of the cops. Actually I told them to turn around while I took it.
Sticky sign from outside Kinnick advertising the Iowa/Minnesota game(team logos on the left and Green State Credit Union logo on the right.

By far my favorite sign of the day.
A frog with a sign that says “Give me RIBBERTY or give me death.”

Inspired by @stevesteverers.whaleoilcandles.com. But also by people giving me their unwanted opinions today.

Goddamnir y’all! She rolled in the ashes while I was watching @streetlightlily.bsky.social’s instagram stories.
Malin with ashes (you can’t see because she’s grey) on her coat and some other little pieces of weeds. What a dick.

For real though, how is this cat so goddamn cute?
Large, short-haired mackerel tabby cat laying on a Nike shoebox with his head and right paw up on a printer using it as a pillow. His right leg is laying on a green mini desk fan and there is a pen cup in front of the printer. Two kinds of lotion are in front of the box and under his booty which is kinda hanging off the edge because his a chonk. The shoebox is dented due to the chonk as well.
